I don't think so. I think no matter... And again... There's a reality here where things are just so bad that why are we even talking about video games?
But, like, I think that no matter what happens, the Switch sells out. Like, in any, I think, realistic next couple months of how things can shake.

There's also the side of, does Nintendo pull the plug and be like, we're not releasing it this year? I don't see that happening because they need to make money. They need to, like, get the games out and the software and all this stuff. It's like, this sucks. This could potentially ruin so many companies, no matter how big and powerful they are.

A hundred percent. Oh, so you're just asking like only in America if they delay it, but they release it everywhere else. I just, I don't see them doing that. America's too important and powerful when it comes to the voice of video games and like the, all that stuff. Like that's, we just see how sales of games work and all that.

Like they, I think that that is, that would be a very, very bad strategy for them. And I don't see them doing that. Do they delay worldwide? I think that's way more likely. I think at this point, any hypothesis I could have is pulling out of my ass. Totally.

If you ask me right now, do I think the Switch 2 is going to get delayed? No. But you could see it. Oh, a thousand percent. I could see it. I wouldn't bet anything that it won't, but like, I think that they have a plan. They, again, these things need to be sold or else the company is in trouble. Like there's an entire plan with like a lineup of software that they need to get out there.

Like, and sure they can like take the hit for a while, but I do think it gets to a point that it's like, there's just too, too much money at stake that needs to be in play. But like, there's bigger, more important things out there. And, there's factors that are getting involved that could, again, just could tank the entire industries surrounding this if the wrong moves are made. 100%.

Yeah, so the new version of the finale is coming out sometime this week. I'm incredibly bummed about this news. I loved this show. It was not always perfect. I think season two overall was... Not good enough. I don't want to say it was bad, but I think that season two kind of put them in a place that they lost a lot of people that were kind of watching week to week. Who were rocking for it.

And then I think that season three and four got into a much better spot of realizing, like, we now just have an amazing cast of characters that just putting them in situations and letting them be the way they are is fun. It reminds me a lot of Community or The Office and things like that, where you were like, just at a certain point, It's not about the plot. You're here for the characters.

And, God, they got there. Like, season four was awesome because of everything I just said. Like, amazing characters and amazing choices for them. The two leads, Ian and Poppy, were awesome. The dynamics they had, the amount of situations they put them in and took them out of and back and forth and back and forth. It's a sitcom workplace comedy, right? Sure.

We've seen a lot of this stuff before, but we haven't seen it in the video game space. And the amount of times, if you've watched the show every freaking day, you've heard us say this a lot, but the amount of times that Bless and I, who are two of the people I know that watch the show, have brought up This show clearly is written by people that watch games daily. Like, it is jokes for us.
